My dotfiles

skelz0r dotfiles

For unix system, with vim, git, pry and tmux. Install some must-have plugins and aliases for developping with rails framework.

Requirements

Install and set zsh as your login shell.

chsh -s /bin/zsh

Recommandations

Some aliases and plugins recommand/use following programmes:

Install ag (ack-like more powerfull):

git clone https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher

Install hub (git wrapper for github):

git clone https://github.com/defunkt/hub

Install rvm (Ruby Version Manager) :

Install

Clone onto your laptop:

git clone https://github.com/blackbirdco/dotfiles.git

Install:

cd dotfiles
./install.sh

This will create symlinks for config files in your home directory. If you include the line "DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE" anywhere in a config file, it will copy that file over instead of symlinking it, and it will leave everything above that line in your local config intact.

You can safely run ./install.sh multiple times to update.

Make your own customizations

Put your customizations at the top of files, separated by "DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE."

For example, the top of your ~/.gitconfig might look like this:

[user]
  name = Loïc Delmaire
  email = [email protected]

# DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE

[color]
  diff = auto

The top of your ~/.zshrc might look like this:

# Productivity
alias todo='$EDITOR ~/.todo'

# DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE

# add the current branch name in green
git_prompt_info() {
